Title: Natural herbal antidepressants
Post by: Asphyxia on January 01, 2021, 09:52:02 AM
I went to a psychiatrist twice in the past and got prescribed with SSRIs which i never even considered taking, more so now as i know that anti depressants are causing erectile dysfunction
plus im not so keen on pills
Does anyone know of natural herbs which help with mood but also with peyronies? I wanna kill 2 birds with 1 stone

Cant get cbd here
I know that adaptogens like korean ginseng and ashwagandha are good
Im wondering about herbs like kanna,blue lotus, wild dagga, marhihuanilla etc
If they slow down circulation or have negative cardiovascular effects then i wont even consider it
Any knowledge on these or other herbs?

Psychiatrists are not psychologists.  They depend on prescriptions as a primary and often as the only means of treatment.

Counseling by a GOOD counselor, meditation, natural components like you mention, and others like St John's Wort, SAM-e, and others may help at least as much as prescription drugs.  I am not sure there is any data on their impact on Peyronies Disease, however.

SAMe worked for me and also passionflower. Anything that relaxes you naturally will help with an erection. Alcohol can bring on ED. I don't know how it affects peyronies. Stress and anxiety also causes ED.
